Tuned down half step.
C
As I ride this lonesome highway
Am
The desert wind across my face
C
My mind slowly wanders
G
To another time….another place
C
When the world was so much younger
Am
With no reason to hold back
C
And we weren’t so afraid of losing
G
All the things we’d never had
C
Those days are gone forever
Am
Time to kiss the past goodbye
G
Meet me out tonight
C
On the open road
C
Baby we belong together
Am
If I had you by my side
G
Meet me out tonight
C
On the open road
Your had a dream you once believed in
That burned inside you like a fire
And that big wheel kept on turning
Somehow that dream it passed you by
Now that fire just keeps on burning
Leaves only hunger and desire
Gotta find yourself a new dream
And leave the rest behind
Those days are gone forever
Time to kiss the past goodbye
Meet me out tonight
On the open road
Baby we belong together
If I had you by my side
Meet me out tonight
On the open road
Somewhere over the horizen
Where the darkness meets the light
We’ll marry all our dreams together
Out on this open road tonight
(Sax solo. Chorus plays through twice)
Those days are gone forever
Time to kiss the past goodbye
Meet me out tonight
On the open road
Baby we belong together
If I had you by my side
Meet me out tonight
On the open road
Those days are gone forever
Time to kiss the past goodbye
Meet me out tonight
On the open road
GC
On the open road
On the open road
On the open road
